And whenever
she starts to forget
the story of her original bloom,
the flowers of this earth remind her
she too will spring up from the ground
again.
Gravity will not restrain her,
for the sun and rainfall
will propel her
up
from gritty soil
into open morning air,
and Light will meet her there
and she will
begin
to unfold
in the way
she is meant to.
